So Germany could raise contributions 2.5% and cut benefits 2.5% once and fix the problem forever? And this is a country with one of the worst demographic cliffs on earth.
Sounds like a non-problem to me.

None of those options sounds so terrible frankly. Pensioners in Germany have been getting above COL increases for years, they can take a haircut. Taxes are at historic lows, they can take a little increase, especially at the higher end. And a little more borrowing is perfectly fine for sovereigns.

With the difference that those uses probably wouldn't support the same sort of pricing as an AI datacenter which is very cost insensitive to electricity prices.

I think the biggest problem with Labour is that nobody ever really liked them in the first place, the Tories had just become totally anathema, even to their own base, who have now totally defected to Farage.
Not to say Starmer has been anything other than a bumbling buffoon.

Evolution, however, will guarantee that the inherently baby-crazy eventually dominate the species and the problem will solve itself.

The age cliff is overrated. Birthrates have mostly stopped declining, once we digest the post-boomer bump the age balance will be perfectly fine.
